Hi again,
looks fine, how to get revision 29 see my previous mail.
Wait with a new install. That really should not be necessary.
rpm -e the atrpm modules and to install the mercurial repo most likely
will all clean up, if you didn't copy stuff manually around or have
compiled a custom kernel with some modules built in.
Cheers,
Hermann
